    LIFE AT A SWEDISH IMlilL

Lite at a Swedish farm is like life
nowhere else. Contented, rather than
ambitious, the people cliug tenaciously
to the manners and habits of tlnir
ancestors; carrying their love for prim
itive customs so lar that they seem to
belong more to the keventeenth than to
the nineteenth century.
The present farmer or bonde,"
forms an imjiortunt class in Sweden a
class which has been justly called the
backbone of the country. Indepen
dent. industriouH. and self-retpectiucr,
he is not unlike the ISritinu yeoman of
olden days. But he will not change, j okia of his cattle gives him shoe-leath-like

died, with sons, daughters, and grand-
children growing up around him, and
aud maid-servants, who are treated m
members of the family.
S moe the greater part of Sweden is
still covered by forest, it follows that
wo?d is cheaper than stone, and is,
therefore, largely nsed for building
purposes. Houses are sometimes made
s.t great trunks of trees, laid horizon
tally one above another, the interstices
being filled with moss. This is the old
style. A more mo lern plan is to saw
the logs lengthwise into two, or to cut
them into very thick plants, which are
either placed horizontally or upright;
the latter being thought the more dura
ble, is often nsed for the building of
churches.
A farmhouse, or gaarde, is sometimes
built in a quadrungle; the Court in the
centre being entered through an arch
way; but more frequently the ttiuare is
surrounded only on three sides, the
m VUUUIT luiiu.mf -
dwelling house in the centre, flunked
ou one side by a stable, on the other
by the cowhouse, "ladugaarde. " These
are not nnder one roof, a Plight space
between each building serving as a
bufegnard against tire. All ouJ-.
erections houses, barns and stake
fences are painted re... adJing a pic
turesque eleraut to the scenery; the
artist ' uiTeetof whioh is heightened bv
me green roofs common in many r t.iI
districts. In pi ices where neither tilot
nor slate can be proenred, the farcner
roofs his house witn wood; and as
straw is too precious a commodity to
be used for that, h, he overlays his
beams with earth. Thither the wind
curries grans, fern and flower see:!a;
often also the seed of fir and mountain
ash trees; so that quite a pret ty garden
is frequently to be seen upon the roots
of houses and burns, especially if the
district is mountainous. The thrifty
Swede does not fail to make use of this
impromptu hay crop. Upon the true
"Many a little makes a niickle" princi
ple, he carefully mows his roof, and
adds the produce to his scanty store of
fodder.
A Swedish gaarde is rarely more
than one etory in height, aud consists
of two large rooms a kitchen and an
other w hich is literally the living -loom
of the family; for it is here they
eal and drink, work, play and also
sleep. Some ol the more wealthy" have
a third room; but this is t as a
truest chamber, and Is only us a by the
luniily as a sate storing place for their
best Ksrments.
1 he roomy kitchen looks what it is
a place in which to cook, Imke, bru
and churn. The apptiaiiees for these
housewifely arts are plainly to be seen.
There are racks for crockery, shelves
for pots and pans, and hooks for many
small necessaries. A place for every
thing, and everything in Its pluce, is
evidenllf the good house luotuor's rule,
fireplaces differ with locality. In the
south you see stoves; but in the
country opeu ranges are more usual,
and in many parts the fire burns upon
broad stone platform, raised iiltar
Jilte about two feet atiove the kiVheu
floor, iicueuth the wide open chim
ney, supported by a strong bar, hang
one or more chains, from whence the
paus aud kettles dangle over the
blazing logs.
The hving room, or lufva, is large
and comfortable, though a stiauger
might consider it too hot; for hardy as
he is a Swede likes warmth within
doors, aud loves to see his hearth piled
with blazing pine logs. There is no ceil
ing to the room, only broad rafters black
with age, from which hang bunches of
herbs, hanks of yarn, or other articles
in general use. The floor is strewn
with sprigs of pine or spruce, w hich
emit a delightfully refreshing odor
when trampled under foot. The robust
health enjoyed by the Swedish bonde
may possibly be greatly owing to this
wholesome praol ice, which is universal
from north to south, and, unlike most
peasant costumes, is also to be ol)
berved iu towns.
Saturday is waabiug day. If there
is no proper bathhouse or "ba lstuga, "
the laUugaarde serves the purpose.
The great pan, three feet in diameter, iu
which cattle fodder is prepared, now
swings over the log fire full of steam
ing water; and by the time the evening
meal is ready, the family assemble,
fresh. rosy, and smiling, with hair neat
ly brushed ard braided, and clothes
sweet, clean, and tidy. So the week
ends, and they are ready lor the
next.
A bonde is of all men the most in
dustrious. "Laziness is the devil's
cushion," he (ays, with a wise shake of
the bead; and certaiuly no one can ac
cuse him of borrowing; that Satanic
luxury. Kven iu winter he rises at
there o'clock iu the morning, and his
good wife and her maidens have
finished their dairy woi k and set the
house in order long before their more
indolent sisters of the sunny south sit
down to breakfast. The morning work
accomplished, the house-mother
seats herself at her loom,
her daughters take each her
spinning-wheel, while the ami J ser
vants are but-y carding wool. A happy
party it is, and a merry one, for
tongues ma v wag as fast as fingtrs. A
story is told, or jokes fly round the
circle, or perhaps one, with a sweeter
voice than the rest, begins singing one
of the ballads, or folk-viser, of w hich
the bonde is so fond. Thus time flies.
Except in towns, there are no shops
in Sweden, and no traJesaien. Every
farmer is his own blacksmith and car
penter, his own glazier and his own mil
ler. If he needs another barn, he applies
to no builders, but bids his lads tak
their axes and follow him to the forest,
where he chooses the trees best suited
to his purpose. There is, in faor, no
part of the work which he cannot do
for himself, and do well.
Twice a year, in April and October,
comes slaughtering-time a busy sea
son for the farmer and his wife. By
long experience he kno.ig exactly how
many piga, sheep, and cattle will be
required by his household. These he
kills, giving the meat to his good wife,
while ho and his men are occupied
with the hides, horns, and hoofs. Of
the Utter he makes glue; reserving the
best horns that the young men who
have taste for carving may not lack
matoriat Nothing is wasted. Even the
sinews of the slaughtered cattle have
their uses, and must be carefully cured
and dried.
Every farmer is also a tanner, and
auderstands the procecs needful to
vioiuoi leather of every variety, from
harness aud stoat boot leather, to the
go ft, fine, dyed skins of whioh the wo
men make poo.cb.9s and belts. A few
of the sbeei skins are tanned witb the
wool on. These are for rugs and bed
coverings. In some districts they are
naed to make coats for winter wear,
the wool actios; as lining to the gar
ment, and as trimminsc, for it forms a
fringe to the wrists and bottom to the
1 coat.
I Self-helpful as he is, however, the
farmer cannot supply all his needs; and
when a country air is held, which hap
pens two or threw times every year, he
never fail to attend it, taking with
him all the produce of his farm which
can be spared, and returning laden
witb snifar, salt, coffee, tobaooo, and
corn brandy, which it is now not law
ful for him' to make at home.
There is, indeed, little a bonde can
not do for himself. He grows flax for
his wife to spin and weave, hops for
the annual olbrewing, and if he lives
upon a fjord, he grows also hemp
; enough to snpply him with nets. The
Twice a year a shoemaker makes tho
round of all the outlying farms and
hamlets, staying at each house for sev
eral days, uiitil, in fact, he has supplied
every man, woman, and child on the
premises with shoes to last for six
months. In the earns way a tailor
comes round onco in six months. As
soon as he 13 seen approaching, the
housemother bustles oat to receive
him with due honor; aud while some
of her maidens prepare a meal for the
traveller, others (etch out the bales of
cloth, the fruits of months of busy
spinning and weaving. Then follows a
grand cutting out, fitting on, and
Btitcbing; and when the itinerant
tuilor journeys on to his next custom
er, he leaves behind him a houseful of
simple folK delighted with and never
tired of admiring their new garments,
and praising the skill which has made
them fit so cleverly.
In many parts of rural Sweden teach
ing and doctoring are carried on in the
I same curious manner. Once in a long
line tne doctor mattes a tour, ana is
hospitably entertained at every farm
ou his wide cr,v.iii.
The travelling schoolmaster is a
national institution. ' Flyttbara Sko
ler," or eironlar schools, are held peri
odically in til rural districts; and all
that can be said for the system is, that
it is better thuu no education at all;
but as weeks or months must elapse
between each course of study, high
results cannot be expected.
Politeness is a striking characteristio
of the Swedish nation, and in this par
t ciiUr all classes are alike. Sot only
do the rich tn at their inferiors with
kind conpnleratioD, but the poor are
courteous to the poor; self-respect
lead'ng. as it should, to respect for
others; f,,r
'Manner are not Kile, but the fruit
of loyal natures ami of loyal roioUs."
How trne an in&ight into human
nature is here displayed by
our poetl The courtesy of the
Swedish bonde is not merely tho
outcome of kindly goodwill, but is tho
natural result of his own innate hon-ff-ty.
ilis frank open-hearted hospi
tality is marred by no distrust, no
doubt of his guest's honor or kindly
feeling; for 1 e is too loyal himself to
suspect disloyslly in others.
L'nlike his Norwegian neighbor, a
Swedish bonde is light of heart and
jovial, fond of singing and dancing,
and thoroughly appreciating tbe pleas
ures oi the table. He never loses an
opportunity for a kalas, or least. Not
uly ai6 uli public festivals celebrated
with preat fstut, but every domestic
event riei ves as the occasion for a grand
merrymabin-r. A "broUop," or wed
ding, las-ts sever.il days; also a be
trothal, and a "barn-ol," or christen
ing. Besides these, there are minor
festivities of au impromptu kind,
which give great zest to ordinary lite.
A bonde is always ready to help his
neighbor at a busy time. It may le
the building of a bsrn, or the raising
of a hassja; whatever it is that calls the
neigh hors together, tho opportunity is
one for fca-tiug. All hands work hear
tily until the supper hour arrives; then
the host invites them to enter the
house, where the smiling house-mother
stands ready to welcome her guests to
her well-spread tsble, and the grand
business of eating and drinking
negina. .Not all at once, however.
It is one of the canons of bonde I
etiquette that you should not accept of
hospitality without demur. It is the j
proper thing to protest against the j
honor done to yon, especially if ,
you are invited to sit in the "upper- :
tnost room of the feast." Here again
the custom is patriarchal. Under these
circumstances th; placing of guests Is
a work of time; but this distresses no
irs oi time; cut tuis uisures-ea no

"Thanks for tbe meal" to whioh they
reply, "Val-bekommet" "Welcome to

food is universal, from the highest to
the lowest, and is as necessary
a part of a grand city dinner
party as at a bonde kalas.
This little ceremony over, the table is
cleared with great dispatch; the musi
cian of the party takes his fiddle and
strikes up a lively tune, and the dance

The committee report accompany
ing the bill gives some statistics
which make an impressive showing
of the great injury to life and limb in
railway train service. Wellington
won Waterloo and Meade Gettysburg
with a lo?sof 23,155 and 23,203, while
the total loss on both sides at Shlloh
in two days' murderous fighting was
24,000. In the three years' war of i
the Crimea England lost in killed and
wounded 21,035 men. fone of these
trrriblo battles furnished a list of
losses equal to the loss in a single
year of our railroad men, a loss equal,
in fact, to the entire present force of
the United States army.
In the Johnstown flood 2,230 per

1S90 casualties on our railways re

2,451, and Injured, 22,394. The
Johnstown disaster filled the Imagi
nation with horror and sent a thrill
of sympathy throughout the civilized
world, but that calamity came in one
fell swoop, while fatalities on the
railways, involving in the aggregate
a far greater sacrifice of human life,
have scarcely attracted public atten

was in great danger one night said
he:
"It was a clear autumn evening,
nd I was running a passenger train.
We were a little behind time, and 1
was going along at a very good pace.
There was an immense wood to go
through, and the line, on clearing it,
took a sharp turn to the westward.
Just as we made that turn my heart
came right up between my teeth, for
there, coming straight down the line
was another engine witb her head
light flaming in my eyes like a star.
"1 blew 'down brakes' and had my
engine reversed before I had drawn
julfa breath, and sent tbe train buck
bs hard as I could to a siding about a
mile behind us, and waited for the
piner train tnat 1 supposed to be
plose by, but she did not come. I
made tbe signal man wire up the
line to see If there was any special or
runaway engine In the way but the
answer was that the line was clear.
The passenzers got out and began to
talk and ak questions, and as for me,
I was dazed. I thought of runaway
locomotives and train-wreckers.

hear, was qu el around the bend. I

Uhe ordinary way to the best advantage
is a delicate operatiop. The saw is
Ubout two feet long, a fiftieth of an
1 inch thick, and from an inoh and a
j half to three inches wide; the teeth,
fonr or six to the inch, sloping a little
' forward, at an angle between that of
the handsaw and the crosscut saw,
j The tusk is never quite circular in seo
' tion, and this irregularity has to be
allowed for in marking ont tbe cuts
and all along the centre of the tusk
there is a speck due to the apices of
the successive hollows, which also has
to be dodged by the cutter; and some
times he will find a bullet in the tusk
to bother him, and rarely, very rarely,
the bullet may be of the golden sort.

quently in fiction and so seldom in

the blocks go to the turner and earver

ivhioh is, however, worth from 16 to
20 per ton.
After the ivory has been turned or
carved, it is polished on a wheel. The
. Ivory worker's wheel is like a gigantio
i penwiper; it consists of round pieces
if cloth screwed fast between disks of
! wood two or three inches less in di

But all ivory does not come from the
tusk, some comes from the grinder,

species of elephants, the Indian and

African has large ones, a yard long;
Ihe Indian's trunk has a finger at the

M. de Sartines, at one time chief of
(be police of the city of Paris, was a
master of his profession. The crimi
nal to whom he gave his attention
was almost sure, sooner or later, to be
brought to justice.
An Incident which Illustrates the
thoroughness of his work is recorded,
reluctantly one may imagine, in tbd
Vienna police reports.
The chief of the Vienna police wrot
to him describing a criminal who had
fled from Vienna and taken refuge in
Parts, and requesting Sartines to dis
cover and seize the fugitive.
Sartines gave his orders for a search
for the man. Two months passed.
Then he wrote the Vienna officer:
"I bavo sought the criminal you
described cn all sides, and for a long
time in vain. But at last the efforts
of my agents arc rewarded. We have
touna the man.
"He is in Vienna, -which city fco
aas not left at all. You will fled him
